Who is this Jamin guy anyway?
I am the husband of one and the father of nine. I was created to sing, to worship, to encourage, and to be steady. I am the Owner & Executive Director of Trinity Arts Center, a multi-disciplinary Arts Center in Eastern Tennessee, and the President of Trinity Arts Foundation, a 501(c)(3) organization focused on funding arts education and performance. I've been involved with four music projects in my life -- Hot Pink Turtle, Spin Radio, Stand Like Stone, and of course, Jamin Rathbun.

1 Samuel 2:6-8The Lord brings death and He makes alive. He brings down to the grave and He raises up. The Lord sends poverty and wealth. He humbles and He exalts. He raises the poor from the dust and lifts the needy from the ashes. He seats them with princes and has them inherit a throne of honor. For the foundations of the earth are the Lord's, upon them he has set the world.

Due to the recent spate of resignations from his church, this guy (who claims to be 118 years old and goes by the names Theuidin and Kar Los) has devised a new reality TV show...

Survivor: Church. Out-Sit. Out-Fast. Out-Pray.

Each week, after competing in various challenges for reward or immunity, the pastors have to face the predatory council of Deacons, where one will be voted off and then replaced. This will continue untill the rapture. Some of the challenges that will take place are:

Memory: After meeting 100 new people for 2 min each, pastors compete to see who remembers the most names and faces.

Endurance: Pastors will be forced to stand on poles out in the hot sun and pray continually. The last pastor to not repeat himself or give up will be declared the winner.

Puzzle solving: All the instruments and sound gear will be removed from the stage. The pastors have to replace the gear in an order that pleases the congregation, the musicians, and the drummer.

Guile: Each pastor will preach an offering sermon to the same congregation over each week. Whatever pastor can extract the most money out of the congregation based on percentage, will be the winner.

Agility: Given thirty non-christians in a small holding pen, each pastor much attempt to convert them all in a given period of time.

Accuracy: Scripture quoting competition.

Water Skills: Pastors must baptise plastic dummies in increasingly disgusting pools of water, starting with a baptismal, then swamps, and ending with a pirahna infested river.
